Possible to have multiple standalone versions installed on the slaves?
We're using version X for 3ds Max and version Y for Modo.
So if I want to render over the network I can start daemon version X for Max and Y for Modo?

Yes, you can launch multiple daemons, but you have to make sure they use different ports (which you then configure accordingly in the master network settings).

Rob, my understanding is that in the specific case of Octane 2.24.1 and 2.24.2 plugins, they will both work on 2.24.1 and 2.24.2 slaves (since they are effectively both 2.24.1).
